who we work with

You hold outreach events. You hand out flyers. You pick up the phone
and call people. But your vendor pool isn't growing, and it doesn't
reflect your community. Why?

The problem isn't in the events, or the flyers. The problem is that
when your interested vendors get home, they all face the same frustration.
You're one of many agencies in your region, you're all competing for
the attention of your business community, and all the different e-bid
platforms are leaving your vendors feeling frustrated.

This is where we come in.

We're the next-generation procurement outreach platform, and we're
excited to get your agency's bids and opportunities out in front of
a wider, more diverse audience.

We're a one-stop search engine for contracting opportunities all across your
metropolitan region. We combine your contract and RFP database with the other
agencies in your region, giving your vendor community one single place to go.

We help you collaborate with the other agencies in your region. Instead of
competing with them for vendor attention, your outreach efforts now support
one another. Every event you do, every tweet you post, it now has a multiplier
effect on your efforts. And your vendors see it.

If you're a program manager in charge of equity and inclusion, you know how hard
it is to engage with new vendors. Convincing historically disadvantaged businesses
to try and work with your agency is an uphill battle.

Get certified. Take home these flyers. Check our website every week.
Read through lists of RFPs. You might be discouraged, but keep reading.

More often than not, new vendors do get discouraged, even overwhelmed, at the
amount of administrative work they're asked to do, just to find your contracting
opportunities.

We eliminate that work, simplify the process, and create happy vendors who submit
bids. But does it work? You bet, and we'll gladly send along letters of reference.

We don't ask you to change your e-bid platform. We don't want you to change
your e-bid platform. Keep what you've got, and we'll integrate your contracts
and RFPs into our search engine. You don't need to change how you do your job to
see great results from Procurement Search.

We work hard to make sure implementation is as easy as possible. You don't
need to retrain your staff or change your processes. You don't need to involve IT.
In most cases, we can get an agency up and running in less than a week.
